Prosthetic surgery Knee and hip joints Prosthetic surgery for knee and hip joints is a type of surgery where a damaged or diseased joint is replaced with an artificial joint, or prosthesis. This surgery is typically recommended for patients with severe joint damage due to arthritis, injury, or other conditions that cause chronic pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. During the surgery, the damaged joint is removed and replaced with a prosthetic joint made of metal, plastic, or ceramic components. The prosthetic joint is designed to mimic the function of a natural joint, allowing for improved mobility, flexibility, and range of motion.
